The Civil Service Fast Stream Online Tests are the UK government's online assessment stages for its graduate leadership scheme. Candidates take a Verbal Test (true/false/cannot say), a Cubiks-supplied Numerical Test (data interpretation), and a Judgement Test rating the effectiveness of actions, plus work-style questionnaires and a case study. Tests are completed remotely within a set window, most are untimed, scoring uses T-scores/percentiles, and there is no application or test fee.

1Passage: "All Civil Service Fast Stream applicants must complete the online tests within a fixed window after registering. Candidates who do not submit before the deadline are automatically withdrawn from that year's competition." Statement: Applicants who miss the submission window are withdrawn from the current year's competition.
A.True
B.False
C.Cannot Say
D.Partially true
Explanation: In the Civil Service verbal test you judge a statement only against the passage. The passage explicitly says candidates who do not submit before the deadline are 'automatically withdrawn from that year's competition,' which matches the statement exactly, so it is True.
2Passage: "The numerical test for the Fast Stream is supplied by Cubiks and presents data in tables, charts and graphs. Each question offers five answer options, only one of which is correct." Statement: Each Fast Stream numerical question has six answer options.
A.True
B.False
C.Cannot Say
D.True for graphs only
Explanation: The passage states each numerical question offers five answer options. The statement claims six options, which directly contradicts the passage, so it is False.
3Passage: "The Civil Service Judgement Test presents realistic workplace scenarios and asks candidates to rate how effective each suggested action would be." Statement: The Judgement Test asks candidates to write a short essay explaining their decisions.
A.True
B.False
C.Cannot Say
D.True for the case study
Explanation: The passage says the Judgement Test asks candidates to rate how effective each action would be. Writing an essay is not mentioned and contradicts the described rating task, so the statement is False.
4Passage: "The department's flexible-working policy allows staff to vary their start time between 07:30 and 10:00, provided core hours of 10:00 to 12:00 and 14:00 to 16:00 are covered." Statement: A member of staff may begin work at 11:00 under this policy.
A.True
B.False
C.Cannot Say
D.Cannot Say without manager approval
Explanation: The latest permitted start time is 10:00, and core hours begin at 10:00. Starting at 11:00 would breach the morning core hours, so the statement contradicts the passage and is False.
5Passage: "The report found that productivity rose in three of the five teams after the new software was introduced. The remaining teams saw no measurable change." Statement: Productivity fell in two of the teams after the software was introduced.
A.True
B.False
C.Cannot Say
D.True for one team only
Explanation: The passage says two teams saw 'no measurable change,' which is not the same as a fall. Claiming productivity fell contradicts the passage, so the statement is False.
6Passage: "The consultation received 4,200 responses. Of these, 60% were from members of the public and the remainder from organisations." Statement: More than 1,500 responses came from organisations.
A.True
B.False
C.Cannot Say
D.Cannot Say without the breakdown
Explanation: If 60% (2,520) came from the public, the remaining 40% came from organisations: 40% of 4,200 is 1,680, which is more than 1,500. The statement is supported, so it is True.
7Passage: "The policy team meets every Monday. Major decisions require a quorum of at least four of the seven members." Statement: A meeting attended by three members can take major decisions.
A.True
B.False
C.Cannot Say
D.True if the chair attends
Explanation: A quorum of at least four members is required for major decisions. Three members fall below the quorum, so the statement contradicts the passage and is False.
8Passage: "The Fast Stream is open to graduates and those expecting to graduate by the following September. Some schemes also accept applications from existing civil servants." Statement: Only graduates may apply to the Fast Stream.
A.True
B.False
C.Cannot Say
D.True for digital schemes only
Explanation: The passage says applicants may be graduates OR those expecting to graduate, and some schemes accept existing civil servants. The word 'only' makes the statement too restrictive and contradicts the passage, so it is False.
9Passage: "The grant scheme funded 120 projects last year. The team expects demand to grow but has not confirmed next year's budget." Statement: The grant scheme will fund more than 120 projects next year.
A.True
B.False
C.Cannot Say
D.False because the budget will fall
Explanation: The passage says the team expects demand to grow but has NOT confirmed the budget. Without a confirmed budget, the number of future projects cannot be determined, so the correct response is Cannot Say.
10Passage: "All new starters complete an induction in their first week. Induction includes a security briefing and an introduction to the Civil Service Code." Statement: The induction includes a security briefing.
A.True
B.False
C.Cannot Say
D.Cannot Say for remote starters
Explanation: The passage explicitly lists a security briefing as part of induction. The statement restates this fact directly, so it is True.
